Come, Social Spirit
Come, O Thou All-Victorious Lord
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 110 hymnals Hymnal Title: African Methodist Episcopal Church Hymnal Lyrics: 1 Come, O Thou all-victorious Lord,
Thy power to us make known;
Strike with the hammer of the Word,
And break these hearts of stone.
2 O that we all might now begin
Our foolishness to mourn!
And turn at once from every sin,
And to the Savior turn.
3 Give us ourselves and Thee to know
In this our gracious day:
Repentance unto life bestow,
And take our sins away.
4 Convince us first of unbelief,
And freely then release:
Fill every soul with sacred grief,
And then with sacred peace.
Amen. Topics: Jesus Christ Ascension; Ascension; Conversion Scripture: Psalm 103:3 Used With Tune: ST. AGNES
Come, O Thou All-Victorious Lord
O That I Knew the Secret Place
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 221 hymnals Hymnal Title: African Methodist Episcopal Church Hymnal Lyrics: 1 O that I knew the secret place
Where I might find my God!
I'd spread my wants before His face,
And pour my woes abroad.
2 I'd tell Him how my sins arise,
What sorrows I sustain,
How grace decays, and comfort dies,
And leaves my heart in pain.
3 He knows what arguments I'd take
To wrestle with my God;
I'd plead for His own mercy's sake,
And for my Savior's blood.
4 My God will pity my complaints,
And heal my broken bones;
He takes the meaning of His saints,
The language of their groans.
5 Arise, my soul, from deep distress,
And banish every fear;
He calls thee to His throne of grace,
To spread thy sorrows there. Topics: The Christian Life Prayer and Intercession Scripture: Job 23:3 Used With Tune: ST. AGNES
O That I Knew the Secret Place
Happy the Home When God Is There
Author: Henry Ware, Jr. Hymnal: 50 Uncommon Songs #10 (2014) Hymnal Title: 50 Uncommon Songs Lyrics: 1. Happy the home when God is there,
And love fills every breast;
When one their wish, and one their prayer,
And one their heav’nly rest.
2. Happy the home where Jesus’ name
Is sweet to every ear;
Where children early speak His fame,
And parents hold Him dear.
3. Happy the home where prayer is heard,
And praise is wont to rise;
Where parents love the sacred Word
And all its wisdom prize.
4. Lord, let us in our homes agree
This blessed peace to gain;
Unite our hearts in love to Thee,
And love to all will reign. Scripture: Joshua 24:15 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. AGNES

John Hampden Gurney
1802 - 1862 Person Name: John H. Gurney Hymnal Title: A. M. E. C. Hymnal Author of "Great King of Nations" in A. M. E. C. Hymnal Gurney, John Hampden, M.A., eldest son of Sir John Gurney, a Baron of the Exchequer, was born in Serjeants’ Inn, London, Aug. 15, 1802, and educated at Trinity College, Cambridge, where he graduated in 1824. On taking Holy Orders he became Curate of Lutterworth (1827-1844), and subsequently Rector of St. Mary's, Marylebone, and Prebendary of St. Paul's Cathedral. He died in London, March 8, 1862. The Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge and other religious societies had his cordial sympathy, and received his active support. His publications include several small volumes in prose, and the following:—
(1) Church Psalmody; Hints for the improvement of a Collection of Hymns published by the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge, 1853; (2) A Collection of Hymns for Public Worship. Lutterworth, 1838. This contains 300 hymns, and is known as his Lutterworth Collection; (3) Psalms and Hymns for Public Worship, selected for some of the Churches of Marylebone. London, 1851. This collection of 300 hymns and psalm versions is known as his Marylebone Collection. The Preface is signed by "Charles Baring," "Thomas Garnier," and "John Hampden Gurney," but the work was practically done by Gurney.
To the Lutterworth Collection 1838, he contributed :—
1. Earth to earth, and dust to dust. Burial.
2. Great King of nations, hear our prayer. Fast Day.
3. Lord, as to Thy dear Cross we flee. Lent.
4. Lord, at Thy word the constant sun. Harvest.
5. Saviour, what wealth was Thine. Passiontide.
6. Soon to the dust we speed. Heaven anticipated.
7. Thou God of mercy and of might. Good Friday.
8. Thou plenteous source of light and love. Advent.
9. Thou Who of old didst raise. Ascension.
10. Through centuries of sin and woe. For Peace.
11. We praise Thee, everlasting God. Te Deum.
These hymns were all signed "J. H. G.," and Nos. 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 9 and 11, were repeated in the Marylebone Collection, 1851; and to these were added:—
12. Fair waved the golden corn. Child's Hymn.
13. How vast the debt we owe. Offertory.
14. Lord of the Harvest, Thee we hail. Harvest. This is No. 4 above rewritten.
15. Lord, we lift our eyes above. Love of Christ.
In addition to these we are specially indebted to Gurney for, "We saw Thee not when Thou didst come" (q.v.), and "Yes, God is good," &c. (q.v.). Several of the above-named hymns are in extensive use in Great Britain and America. The most popular are annotated under their respective first lines.

Andrew Reed
1787 - 1862 Hymnal Title: Anglican Hymns Old and New (Rev. and Enl.) Author of "Spirit divine, attend our pray'rs" in Anglican Hymns Old and New (Rev. and Enl.) Reed, Andrew, D.D., son of Andrew Reed, was born in London on Nov. 27, 1787, and educated for the Congregational Ministry at Hackney College, London. He was first the pastor of the New Road Chapel, St. George's-in-the-East, and then of the Wycliffe Chapel, which was built through his exertions in 1830. His degree was conferred by Yule College, America. He died Feb. 25, 1862. As the founder of "The London Orphan Asylum," "The Asylum for Fatherless Children," “The Asylum for Idiots” "The Infant Orphan Asylum," and "The Hospital for Incurables," Dr. Reed is more fully known, and will be longer remembered than by his literary publications. His Hymn Book was the growth of years. The preparation began in 1817, when he published a Supplement to Watts, in which were a few originals. This was enlarged in 1825; and entirely superseded by his collection The Hymn Book, prepared from Dr. Watts's Psalms & Hymns and Other Authors, with some Originals, in 1842 (Preface). His hymns, mostly of a plain and practical character, numbering 21, were contributed to these various editions, and were republished with those of his wife in the Wycliffe Supplement, 1872. The best known are "Ah Jesus, let me hear Thy voice” and ”Spirit Divine, attend our prayer." All Dr. and Mrs. Reed's hymns are anonymous in The Hymn Book, 1842, but are given with their names in the Wyclife Supplement, 1872. His hymns now in common use include, in addition to those annotated under their respective first lines :—
1. Come, let us strike our harps afresh. Praise.
2. Come, my Redeemer, come. Desiring Christ's Presence.
3. Gentle Saviour, look on me. Christ's protection Desired.
4. Gracious Lord, as Thou hast taught us. Public Worship.
5. Hark, hark, the notes of joy. Missions.
6. Holy Ghost, with light divine (1817). Prayer to the Holy Spirit. Sometimes given as "Holy Ghost, Thou light divine;" and again as "Holy Spirit, Light divine."
7. Listen, sinner, mercy hails you. Invitation. Generally given as "Hear, O Sinner, mercy hails you."
8. Rich are the joys of solitude. Retirement. Some-times given as "How deep and tranquil is the joy."
9. There [comes] is an hour when I must part. Death anticipated.
10. Ye saints your music bring. Praise of the Cross.

Small Church Music
Editors: Isaac Watts Description:
The SmallChurchMusic site was launched in 2006, growing out of the requests from those struggling
to provide suitable music for their services and meetings. Rev. Clyde McLennan was ordained in mid
1960’s and was a pastor in many small Australian country areas, and therefore was acutely aware of
this music problem. Having also been trained as a Pipe Organist, recordings on site (which are a subset
of the smallchurchmusic.com site) are all actually played by Clyde, and also include piano and piano
with organ versions. All recordings are in MP3 format.
Churches all around the world use the recordings, with downloads averaging over 60,000 per
month.
The recordings normally have an introduction, several verses and a slowdown on the last verse.
Users are encouraged to use software: Audacity (http://www.audacityteam.org) or Song Surgeon (http://songsurgeon.com) (see http://scm-audacity.weebly.com for more information) to adjust the MP3 number of verses, tempo
and pitch to suit their local needs.
Copyright notice: Rev. Clyde McLennan, performer in this collection, has assigned his performer rights in this collection to Hymnary.org. Non-commercial use of these recordings is permitted. For permission to use them for any other purposes, please contact manager@hymnary.org.
